You might be right on the vacuum but, on fuel pressure you are wrong, If the guy was working on a n/a engine that would be the case but he is not. If I'm not mistaken most people don't just put a sr engine in a car without some kind of upgrades. I know i wouldn't... Plus he is working on a turbo engine that needs alot of fuel to work properly, thus you will have more fuel pressure. Look man three things it could be.... fuel pressure, injectors, or the ignitor has a loose conection or just shorting out. If you don't have a good enviroment for the fuel or fire.. the engine will run like crap... you never know it might be something simple that you are just over looking like a bad conection on one of the wires or it could be a bad ground... If nothing else just take it to a shop that knows something about these engines and pay the 50.00 dollar check out fee and fix it yourself. Its hard to fix a problem over the net so let a auto mechanic look at it thats what we get paid for. good luck with the car!!
